We have X in HD, but we still don't have Star Wars

We’re now approaching a decade since the end of the HD wars, and I think it’s time to catalogue all the cinematic masterpieces that we have available for our HD viewing pleasure while we wait for a proper Star Wars release. You know, for posterity.

Kudos to Mocata.

We have a the first color Doctor Who TV story in proper HD, but not Star Wars.

JEDIT: Not saying that DW story is unworthy of the HD treatment, mind you, it’s just kind of mind-boggling when you consider that we don’t (and can’t) even have proper standard def copies of many of the episodes that surround it.

We have The Room in HD, but not Star Wars.

I believe Galaxina is on BD.

I often wonder if those people who made the decision to have [insert TV show/movie/special here] shot on video ever smack their heads in hindsight over their misjudgement.

Only by virtue of a labor strike at the BBC forcing them to shoot the entire story on film at the time.

True, but still, I own “Spearhead from Space” on an official Blu-Ray that isn’t insultingly revisionist, but not Star Wars. That’s crazy to me.

One of the few in this thread I’m almost ok with.

I think I’m okay with the doctor who one, as long as his shins weren’t showing.

What about a topless shower scene?

Random off-topic subforum reference of the day.

I wonder if any of the Highlander sequels have been remastered in HD. That would be the ultimate farce.

We have I Spit On Your Grave 3 on blu ray but we don’t have '77 Star Wars?!
